'The time has come' the Walrus said 'to think of other things. Of shoes and ships and sealing wax. Of cabbages and kings. Of why the sea is boiling hot and whether pigs have wings.'


I want to be a princess from head to toe.
I watched Disney movies and learned everything I need to know.

Why should I be afraid of death?
Like Snow White, a man can kiss me and restore my health!

Why can’t I sneak out and have some fun?
Cinderella did it and got a prince and shoes when she was done!

Why should I speak my mind?
Ariel got the Prince from being a beautiful mime!

Why shouldn’t I wander the streets at night?
Belle did it and everything turned out right!

Why can’t I tell a white lie?
Jasmine did it and fell in love with the right wrong guy!

Why can’t I run away?
Mulan did it; she got a prince and saved the day.

Moral of my movie: a princess can do a lot.
But according to Disney, without a prince I cannot.

Disney has slowly shown girl power in its movies, but earlier princess movies shows young girls that they need a man to help them through life.
